On the way from Ca to Yerington via 
Sly Park and Hwy 88

For the first time I decided to take another way home..we got off Hwy 50 at Sly Park Road and took the road from Sly Park to Hwy 88...beautiful as we went by Silver Lake and Caples Lake..places we used to go camping many years ago...only 4 miles further than our regular route of Hwy 50..so another option.

Our beautiful Yerington sunset

Ken took Adam out for a drive (well Adam took Ken)...BLM Land and I followed on
the quad...





Berlin Ichysaurus State Park 
Berlin, NV
After a few days we decided to take a quick 135 mile trip to Berlin, NV..someplace we've wanted to go for years but never found the time.  We left on Wed and were there in time for a late lunch.  Beautiful drive, not many people on the roads and a lovely campground..we just stayed one night as we were leaving Friday for Tahoe and his work crew!

The campground was really nice, well kept and we enjoyed ourselves!  Berlin is a ghost town and part of the State Park system...really like a mini Bodie in CA.

Tahoe with Russell and crew!
Friday we left Yerington and headed 77 miles to Kingsbury grade and a beautiful trip up the mountain to find this house that we all chipped in and rented for the weekend.  Beautiful place and a beautiful setting..  Friday night we all just relaxed, visited and drank too much...but love Russell's work friends (family)...we love being included in this yearly weekend of theirs!  Saturday am after a big breakfast the whole crew except for us decided to head to the Beacon (Rum Runners are the specialty)...and the beach...Ken wanted to take a look at the car show so i went with him...but traffic was so bad we turned around and came back to the house.  I put together some snacks for later and then enjoyed a good 1/2 hour or so in the hot tub!  Awesome, lazy afternoon!   After everyone got back we enjoyed talking and drinking too much along with too much food!  Then this am we got up, straightened up and we were home by lunch time...love it!  

Tomorrow we will head for Ca to take Adam home and Ken wants to go by Summit racing in Reno to see about some add a leaf springs for his truck!
